"Beauty blooms in the desert"! Well, some people think that all the good stuff comes from the desert. I really don't know about that. You have tea tree oil, Jojoba Oil, Shea Butter, Aloe Vera and Coconut. But I suppose not all of them come from the desert. But as Desert Essence claims, the desert is the source of their ingredients and also the source of inspiration. I think the desert just looks sad and depressing. But then there are people who can find good in everything. They were founded in 1978 and are pioneers in bringing in Jojoba Oil and Aloe Vera as a skin care ingredient. They then proceed to export Australian Tea Tree Oil into the United States. Since then they have expanded their operations and they are now one of the leading skincare companies whose products are truly natural without all those scary chemicals which none of us even heard of. Their range of products include skincare, essential oils, haircare, body & bath, baby products and even dental care.
